      I have seen a few old fights where fighters died after, but I have never seen it live. I actually never heard of the Levander Johnson- Jesus Chavez fight before this.

        I've seen a few on TV but have thankfully never seen it live. I have seen quite a few guys get taken out on the stretcher though. Micheal Covington I thought was dead when he got knocked out by Andrew Murray. The punch he was hit with sounded like a gunshot and Covington didn't stir for what seemed like forever. Auggie Sanchez getting carried out after the Hamed fight was also another notable one I recall offhand. From TV I remember jimmy Garcia, Do Koo Kim, Johnson and Kid Akeem. I'm sure their are others I could remember later. The worst in history probably has to be Emile Griffith killing Benny Paret. Brutal ring death!

            No relation, Omar is one of the sons of Julio Cesar Sr.

                Nazareth died because of a brain hemorrhage, I actually was watching that fight on TV and it was a great fight, very entertaining until that happened. Terrible thing to watch.

                  I've seen one or two on old videos where I knew what happened before I watched but never while I was watching boxing in person or on tv.
